It is with great sadness and profound trepidation that we announce the death of our mother, sister, grandmother, great-grandmother, aunty, cousin and friend-Edna V. Tolbert-Bailey. Nonetheless, we celebrate a life of compassion, fullness, and service.

This transition occurred in Monrovia, Liberia on the evening of November 13, 2013- a month after she celebrated her 94th birthday.

We are immensely grateful and thankful for the precepts she nurtured and instilled in us, for they have emboldened us and stand as the fulcrum of our core beliefs.
